PROXY STATEMENT
OF

Suite 900
Vancouver, Washington 98660
(360) 693-6650

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
JULY 17, 2002

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Riverview Bancorp, Inc. ("Company") to be used at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company ("Meeting"). The Company is the holding company for Riverview Community Bank ("Bank"). The Meeting will be held at the Water Resources Education Center, Bruce E. Hagensen Community Room, 4600 S.E. Columbia Way, Vancouver, Washington, on Wednesday, July 17, 2002, at 10:00 a.m., local time. This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card are being first mailed to stockholders on or about June 5, 2002.

VOTING AND PROXY PROCEDURE

Stockholders Entitled to Vote at Meeting. Stockholders of record at the close of business on May 21, 2002 ("Voting Record Date") are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock ("Common Stock") of the Company then held. At the close of business on the Voting Record Date, the Company had 4,717,566 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

As provided in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, record holders of the Company's Common Stock who beneficially own, either directly or indirectly, in excess of 10% of the Company's outstanding shares are not entitled to any vote in respect of the shares held in excess of the 10% limit.

If you are a beneficial owner of Company Common Stock held by a broker, bank or other nominee (i.e., in "street name"), you will need proof of ownership to be admitted to the Meeting. A recent brokerage statement or letter from a bank or broker are examples of proof of ownership. If you want to vote your shares of Common Stock held in street name in person at the Meeting, you will have to get a written proxy in your name from the broker, bank or other nominee who holds your shares.

Quorum Requirement. The presence, in person or by proxy, of at least a majority of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote at the Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum.

Proxies; Proxy Revocation Procedures. The Board of Directors solicits proxies so that each stockholder has the opportunity to vote on the election of the director nominees and the proposals to be considered at the Meeting. When a proxy card is returned properly signed and dated, the shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the proxy card. Where a proxy card is properly signed and dated but no instructions are indicated, proxies will be voted FOR the nominees for directors set forth below and FOR the approval of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditors. If a stockholder attends the Meeting, he or she may vote by ballot.

Stockholders who execute proxies retain the right to revoke them at any time. Proxies may be revoked by written notice delivered in person or mailed to the Secretary of the Company or by filing a later dated proxy before a vote

<PAGE>

being taken on a particular proposal at the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting will not automatically revoke a proxy, but a stockholder in attendance may request a ballot and vote in person, thereby revoking a prior granted proxy.

If your Company Common Stock is held in street name, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee that you must follow in order to have your shares voted. Your broker or bank may allow you to deliver your voting instructions via the telephone or the Internet. Please see the instruction form that accompanies this proxy statement. If you wish to change your voting instructions after you have returned your voting instruction form to your broker or bank, you must contact your broker or bank.

Participants in the Company ESOP.If a stockholder is a participant in the Company Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), the proxy card represents a voting instruction to the trustees of the ESOP as to the number of shares in the participant's plan account. Each participant in the ESOP may direct the trustees as to the manner in which shares of Common Stock allocated to the participant's plan account are to be voted. Unallocated shares of Common Stock held by the ESOP and allocated shares for which no voting instructions are received will be voted by the trustees in the same proportion as shares for which the trustees have received voting instructions. The deadline for returning your voting instructions to the trustees is July 12, 2002.

Vote Required. The two directors to be elected at the Meeting will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote. Pursuant to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, stockholders are not permitted to cumulate their votes for the election of directors. With respect to the election of directors, votes may be cast for or withheld from one or more nominees. Votes that are withheld and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election because the nominee receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected.

The approval of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2003 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. Abstentions are not affirmative votes and, therefore, will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal and broker non-votes will be disregarded and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Persons and groups who beneficially own in excess of 5% of the Common Stock are required to file certain reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and furnish a copy to the Company, disclosing such ownership pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). Based on such reports, the following table sets forth, at the close of business on the Voting Record Date, certain information as to those persons who were beneficial owners of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. To the Company's knowledge, no other person or entity beneficially owned more than 5% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock at the close of business on the Voting Record Date.

The following table also sets forth, at the close of business on the Voting Record Date, information as to the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by (a) each director, (b) each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table found below ("Named Executive Officers") and (c) all directors and executive officers of the Company as a group.

Sheaffer and Wysaske are $141,094 and $105,324, respectively, which amounts are paid by the Bank and may be increased at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Bank or an authorized committee of the Board. On each anniversary of the commencement date of the Employment Agreements, the term of each agreement may be extended for an additional year at the discretion of the Board. The agreement is terminable by the Employers at any time, by the Executive if the Executive is assigned duties inconsistent with his initial position, duties, responsibilities and status, or upon the occurrence of certain events specified by federal regulations. In the event that an Executive's employment is terminated without cause or upon the Executive's voluntary termination following the occurrence of an event described in the preceding sentence, the Bank would be required to honor the terms of the agreement through the expiration of the current term, including payment of current cash compensation and continuation of employee benefits.

The Employment Agreements also provide for severance payments and other benefits in the event of involuntary termination of employment in connection with any change in control of the Employers. Severance payments also will be provided on a similar basis in connection with a voluntary termination of employment where, subsequent to a change in control, an Executive is assigned duties inconsistent with his position, duties, responsibilities and status immediately prior to such change in control. The term "change in control" is defined in the agreement as having occurred when, among other things, (a) a person other than the Company purchases shares of Common Stock pursuant to a tender or exchange offer for such shares, (b) any person (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities, (c) the membership of the Board of Directors changes as the result of a contested election, or (d) stockholders of the Company approve a merger, consolidation, sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, or a plan of partial or complete liquidation.

The maximum value of the severance benefits under the Employment Agreements is 2.99 times the Executive's average annual compensation during the five-year period preceding the effective date of the change in control (the "base amount"). The Employment Agreements provide that the value of the maximum benefit may be distributed, at the Executive's election, (i) in the form of a lump sum cash payment equal to 2.99 times the Executive's base amount or (ii) a combination of a cash payment and continued coverage under the Employers' health, life and disability programs for a 36-month period following the change in control, the total value of which does not exceed 2.99 times the Executive's base amount. Assuming that a change in control had occurred at March 31, 2002 and that each Executive elected to receive a lump sum cash payment, Messrs. Sheaffer and Wysaske would be entitled to payments of approximately $570,990 and $402,391, respectively. Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provides that severance payments that equal or exceed three times the individual's base amount are deemed to be "excess parachute payments" if they are contingent upon a change in control. Individuals receiving excess parachute payments are subject to a 20% excise tax on the amount of such excess payments, and the Employers would not be entitled to deduct the amount of such excess payments.

The Employment Agreements restrict each Executive's right to compete against the Employers for a period of one year from the date of termination of the agreement if an Executive voluntarily terminates employment, except in the event of a change in control.

Severance Agreements. The Employers have entered into three-year severance agreements with Mr. Yount, Ms. Nelson and Mr. Karas. The severance agreements provide for severance payments and continuation of other employee benefits in the event of involuntary termination of employment in connection with any change in control of the Employers in the same manner as provided for in the Employment Agreements. Severance payments and benefits are also provided on a similar basis in connection with a voluntary termination of employment where, subsequent to

<PAGE>

a change in control, an officer is assigned duties inconsistent with his position, duties, responsibilities and status immediately prior to such change in control.

The term "change in control" is defined in the agreements as having occurred when, among other things, (a) a person other than the Company purchases shares of Common Stock pursuant to a tender or exchange offer for such shares, (b) any person (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities, (c) the membership of the Board of Directors changes as the result of a contested election, or (d) stockholders of the Company approve a merger, consolidation, sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, or a plan of partial or complete liquidation.

Assuming that a change in control had occurred at March 31, 2002, and excluding any other benefits due under the severance agreements, the aggregate value of the severance benefits payable to each of Mr. Yount, Ms. Nelson and Mr. Karas would have been approximately $361,618, $323,471 and $432,883, respectively.

AUDIT COMMITTEE MATTERS

Audit Committee Charter.The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a Charter approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Audit Committee reports to the Board of Directors and is responsible for overseeing and monitoring financial accounting and reporting, the system of internal controls established by management and the audit process of the Company. The Audit Committee Charter sets out the responsibilities, authority and specific duties of the Audit Committee. The Charter specifies, among other things, the structure and membership requirements of the Audit Committee, as well as the relationship of the Audit Committee to the independent accountants, the internal audit department, and management of the Company. A copy of the Charter was attached as an exhibit to last year's proxy statement.

Report of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reports as follows with respect to the Company's audited financial statement for the year ended March 31, 2002:

The Audit Committee has completed its initial review and discussion of the Company's 2002 audited financial statements with management;

The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditor (Deloitte & Touche LLP) the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards ("SAS") No. 61,Communicationwith Audit Committees, as amended by SAS No. 90,Audit Committee Communications, including matters related to the conduct of the audit of the Company's financial statements;

The Audit Committee has received written disclosures, as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committee, indicating all relationships, if any, between the independent auditor and its related entities and the Company and its related entities which, in the auditors' professional judgment, reasonably may be thought to bear on the auditors' independence, and the letter from the independent auditors confirming that, in its professional judgment, it is independent from the Company and its related entities, and has discussed with the auditors the auditors' independence from the Company; and

<PAGE>

The Audit Committee has, based on its initial review and discussions with management of the Company's 2002 audited financial statements and discussions with the independent auditors, recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2002 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

                                                                                    Audit Committee:
                                                                                    Gary R. Douglass, Chairman
                                                                                    Paul L. Runyan
                                                                                    Edward R. Geiger

Independence and Other Matters. Each member of the Audit Committee is "independent," as defined, in the case of the Company, under The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules. The Audit Committee members do not have any relationship to the Company that may interfere with the exercise of their independence from management and the Company. None of the Audit Committee members are current officers or employees of the Company or its affiliates.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MATTERS

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of the Company's previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act that might incorporate future filings, including this Proxy Statement, in whole or in part, the following Report of the Compensation Committee and Performance Graph shall not be incorporated by reference into any such filings.

Report of the Compensation Committee. Under rules established by the SEC, the Company is required to provide certain data and information in regard to the compensation and benefits provided to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers. The disclosure requirements for the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers include the use of tables and a report explaining the rationale and considerations that led to the fundamental executive compensation decisions affecting those individuals. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for establishing and monitoring compensation policies of the Company and for reviewing and ratifying the actions of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Bank. Performance is evaluated and salaries are set by the Compensation Committee of the Bank.

General. The Bank's Compensation Committee's duties are to recommend and administer policies that govern executive compensation. The Committee evaluates individual executive performance, compensation policies and salaries. The Committee is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank while the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank evaluates the performance of other senior officers of the Bank and makes recommendations to the Committee regarding compensation levels.

Compensation Policies. The executive compensation policies of the Bank are designed to establish an appropriate relationship between executive pay and the Company's and Bank's annual performance, to reflect the attainment of short- and long-term financial performance goals and to enhance the ability of the Company and the Bank to attract and retain qualified executive officers. The principles underlying the executive compensation policies include the following:

To attract and retain key executives who are vital to the long-term success of the Company and the Bank and are of the highest caliber;

To provide levels of compensation competitive with those offered throughout the financial industry and consistent with the Company's and the Bank's level

To motivate executives to enhance long term stockholder value by building their equity interest in the Company; and

<PAGE>

To integrate the compensation program with the Company's and the Bank's annual and long-term strategic planning and performance measurement processes.

The Committee considers a variety of subjective and objective factors in determining the compensation package for individual executives, including: (1) the performance of the Company and the Bank as a whole with emphasis on annual performance factors and long-term objectives; (2) the responsibilities assigned to each executive; and (3) the performance of each executive of assigned responsibilities as measured by the progress of the Company and the Bank during the year.

Base Salary. The Bank's current compensation plan involves a combination of salary, salary-at-risk cash bonuses to reward short-term performance, and deferred compensation. The salary levels of executive officers are designed to be competitive within the banking and financial services industries. In setting competitive salary levels, the Compensation Committee continually evaluates current salary levels by surveying similar institutions in Washington State, the Pacific Northwest and the United States. The Compensation Committee's peer group analysis focuses on asset size, nature of ownership, type of operation and other common factors. Specifically, the Compensation Committee annually reviews the Washington State Financial Industry Survey prepared by Milliman & Robertson, Inc. (actuaries and consultants) covering 110 Washington financial organizations, and the America's Community Banker's Survey of Salaries which covers over 500 financial institutions nationwide.

Salary-at-Risk Bonus Program. A short-term incentive salary-at-risk bonus plan is in effect for the senior officers of the Bank which is designed to compensate for performance. The plan is designed to provide for bonuses of up to 45% of salary for the Chief Executive Officer, 35% to 40% of salary for the Executive Vice Presidents, and up to 35% of salary for the Senior Vice Presidents, Vice Presidents, and certain other officers. In limited circumstances, salary-at-risk bonuses may be payable at higher levels based on exceptional performance in excess of established targets. The salary-at-risk performance bonus is based primarily on quantifiable data such as return on equity, deposit totals, loan production, and levels of operating expenses compared to revenues. Subjective evaluation of performance is limited.

Deferred Compensation. Directors and executive officers who are paid to attend board meetings may elect to defer their monthly fees until retirement, with no income tax payable by the directors or executive officers until retirement benefits are received. This alternative is available through a non-qualified deferred compensation plan adopted by the Bank in December 1986, and subsequently amended. Under the plan executive officers may also defer up to 10% of salary and bonus.

Long Term Incentive Compensation. In connection with the Company's reorganization into the holding company structure, the Company adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Management Development and Recognition Plan for executive officers, employees, and non-employee directors of the Company. These plans were approved by the stockholders of the Company in 1998. Under the plans, non-employee directors, executive officers, and other employees may receive grants and awards. The Company believes that stock ownership by the Company's and the Bank's executives is a significant factor in aligning the interests of the executives with those of stockholders. Stock options and awards under such plans were allocated based upon regulatory practices and policies, and the practices of other publicly traded financial institutions as verified by external surveys and were based upon the executive officers' level of responsibility and contributions to the Company and the Bank.

Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, the base salary of Mr. Sheaffer was $141,094. In addition, he received a salary-at-risk performance bonus of $49,027 and was credited with $13,055 in other compensation (comprised of ESOP contribution of $11,409 and employer 401(k) contribution of $1,646) as set forth in the preceding Summary Compensation Table. Mr. Sheaffer also recognized income of $72,464 as a result of vesting of restricted stock awards. This resulted in total compensation of $275,640, which represents a 6.3% increase from the previous year. Mr. Sheaffer's salary-at-risk performance bonus reflected the attainment of the specific performance criteria for the fiscal year established by the Board in the Company's salary-at- risk performance bonus plan. The Committee believes that Mr. Sheaffer's compensation is appropriate based on the

<PAGE>

Company's overall compensation policy, on the basis of the Committee's consideration of peer group data, and the superior financial performance of the Company during the fiscal year. Mr. Sheaffer did not participate in the Committee's consideration of his compensation level for the fiscal year.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of any registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms it has received and written representations provided to the Company by the above referenced persons, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 all filing requirements applicable to its reporting officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders were properly and timely complied with.

TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT

Federal regulations require that all loans or extensions of credit to executive officers and directors must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons (unless the loan or extension of credit is made under a benefit program generally available to all other employees and does not give preference to any insider over any other employee) and does not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. The Bank is therefore prohibited from making any new loans or extensions of credit to the Bank's executive officers and directors at different rates or terms than those offered to the general public and has adopted a policy to this effect. The aggregate amount of loans by the Bank to its executive officers and directors was approximately $538,845 at March 31, 2002. Such loans (i) were made in the ordinary course of business, (ii) were made on substantially the same terms and conditions, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with the Bank's other customers, and (iii) did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features when made.

PROPOSAL II -- APPROVAL OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Deloitte & Touche LLP served as the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. The Board of Directors has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2003, subject to approval by stockholders. A representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP will be present at the Meeting to respond to stockholders' questions and will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she so desires.

Audit Fees

The aggregate fees billed to the Company by Deloitte & Touche LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company's financial statements for fiscal 2002 and the reviews of the financial statements included in the Company's Forms 10-Q for that year, including travel expenses, were $105,000.

Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees

Deloitte & Touche LLP performed no financial information system design or implementation work for the Company during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002.

All Other Fees

Other than audit fees, the aggregate fees billed to the Company by Deloitte & Touche LLP for fiscal 2002, none of which were financial information systems design and implementation fees, were $16,000 for tax return preparation.

<PAGE>

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors determined that the services performed by Deloitte & Touche LLP other than audit services are not incompatible with Deloitte & Touche LLP maintaining its independence.

If the ratification of the appointment of the auditors is not approved by an affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting, other independent public accountants will be considered by the Board of Directors.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP AS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS OF THE COMPANY FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING MARCH 31, 2003.

OTHER MATTERS

The Board of Directors is not aware of any business to come before the Meeting other than those matters described above in this Proxy Statement. However, if any other matters should properly come before the Meeting, it is intended that proxies in the accompanying form will be voted in respect thereof in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons voting the proxies.

MISCELLANEOUS

The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to solicitations by mail, directors, officers and regular employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone without additional compensation.

The Company's Annual Report to Stockholders, which includes the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC, has been mailed to stockholders as of the close of business on the Voting Record Date. Any stockholder who has not received a copy of such Annual Report may obtain a copy by writing to the Secretary of the Company. The Annual Report is not to be treated as part of the proxy solicitation material or as having been incorporated herein by reference.

<PAGE>
